Behind the Breeding
What if you could develop a product with the garden impact of the hybrid zinnias without the inevitable powdery mildew? After 20 years of zinnia breeding, it was clear the Zinnia marylandica offered new opportunities. Put a premium on flower size and quality, maximizing doubleness and accumulated flower canopy. Tighten the plant build to improve appearance at maturity. Saturate the colors to increase garden impact. Possible? Zydeco! Zydeco is our first entry into the interspecific zinnia arena. It combines all these features, offering a great addition to summer gardens.
